This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Read the sentence from the speech.
"Those who came before us made that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention, and the first wave of nuclear power, and this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space."
Why is the propaganda technique used in the sentence effective?
A. It persuades the reader to ask for more help from other countries in future space exploration programs.
B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a forerunner in all scientific endeavors.
C. It persuades the reader to want to save money on future scientific projects in this country.
D. It convinces the reader to support other countries' efforts toward space exploration.
Answer:
B. It convinces the reader to support this country's continued efforts in being a forerunner in all scientific endeavors.
Explanation:
The repeated use of the word "first" to describe the United States´ historical role in technological development generates the idea that there´s an international competition for space exploration. Furthermore, the main propaganda technique used is a transfer to link the country´s role as the forerunner in previous developments to claim that we owe them being firsts in space exploration as well.

Answer:
"His neck ached horribly; his brain was on fire, his heart, which had been fluttering faintly, gave a great leap, trying to force itself out at his mouth. His whole body was racked and wrenched with an insupportable anguish! But his disobedient hands gave no heed to the command."
Explanation:
<em>An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge</em> is a short story by Ambrose Bierce that revolves around the story of an accused man Peyton Farquhar and his dreamlike imagination during his actual execution. And during the small window of time, he had before he was actually hanged and died, his mind raced through a lot of imagination that seemed real and made him believe he had actually escaped his execution at the bridge.
Fluctuating between dream and reality, the plot moves back and forth between the two. While most of the plot, as we will come to realize in the end, stems from his imagination, there are also some real events happening or described in between. One such reality is in the third part of the story where the details of his 'escape' were described by Farquhar. His description gave the implication that after he reached the water, he strove hard to escape and free himself while in reality, his body was actually suffering from the pains of hanging and the constrictions that follow. This pain is revealed in the lines <em>"His neck ached horribly; his brain was on fire, his heart, which had been fluttering faintly, gave a great leap, trying to force itself out at his mouth. His whole body was racked and wrenched with an insupportable anguish!"</em> <u>This is actually the pain that follows the hanging and not the pain of trying to escape the water</u> (as thought by him).
I'd say it was D or the last choice. It makes most sense to me.
Answer:
The last one is correctly punctuated.
Hope it helps you!!
